Chapter
Non-Competition
"Non-Competition" explores the unique nature of artistic expression, arguing that creativity exists outside the framework of traditional competition. Unlike athletics or business, where clear winners and measurable outcomes define success, art is deeply personal and subjective, making direct comparisons between works inherently flawed. Each artist’s creation is a reflection of their individuality, shaped by their experiences, emotions, and perceptions, meaning no two works can be truly equated or ranked…-

What We Tell Ourselves
The chapter titled What We Tell Ourselves delves into the profound self-reflection that artists experience in their creative journeys. It examines how the stories artists tell themselves about their identity and their work often serve as distractions, masking the deeper truths of their creations. These narratives, while comforting, fail to capture the authentic essence of the art itself or the impact it has on the world, emphasizing that the true value lies in the work produced rather than the tales…-

Letter to Monsieur de Molière, Valet de Chambre du Roi opens with a gracious nod to the dual magnificence of French theatre and monarchy, suggesting that your elevation of comedy runs parallel to Louis XIV's refinement of the state. While kings may command armies and build empires, you, through satire and sharp human insight, built a mirror—one that society still cannot ignore. What you did for laughter was not to make it cheap, but to shape it as a tool for reflection, even reform. In your plays,…

Section 14 begins with my desire to gently guide the Monarch of Lineland toward a clearer understanding of his own limited reality. His world, composed only of a single dimension, made it difficult—if not impossible—for him to comprehend anything beyond length. Yet, as an inhabitant of Flatland, I felt a responsibility to introduce him to truths that lay just outside his perception. My questions were framed with care, hoping to draw connections between what he believed and what might be possible. I…

Listening
Listening is an art that demands full presence, much like the practice of meditation, where awareness sharpens as one tunes into the depth of sound. In the modern world, noise surrounds us constantly, yet most of it fades into the background as our minds remain preoccupied with distractions. True listening, however, requires a conscious effort to engage, not just with the ears but with the entire body, allowing sound waves to resonate beyond mere auditory perception. This immersive process mirrors the…-

24/7 (Staying In It)
An artist’s work is not confined to the traditional boundaries of labor; instead, it merges seamlessly with their identity, making creativity a 24/7 endeavor with no clear distinction between professional and personal life. Unlike other professions where work hours are separate from personal time, an artist remains constantly engaged with their craft, whether consciously or subconsciously. Creativity is not just an occupation but an ongoing state of existence, requiring an ever-present awareness that…-

Chapter III begins by investigating how perception evolves from raw experience into structured thought, revealing a spectrum that moves from the immediacy of sensation to constructed concepts. Henri Bergson does not view experience as static or neatly divided; instead, he explains that what we often call facts are not final, but moments within a continuum. Each moment serves both as a foundation for what follows and as a result of what preceded. This flow creates a layered understanding of reality, where…
